A function is a block of code which only runs when it is called.

Information can be passed into functions as arguments.

Arguments are specified after the function name, inside the parentheses. You can add as many arguments as you want, just separate them with a comma.

A parameter is the variable listed inside the parentheses in the function definition.

An argument is the value that is sent to the function when it is called.
